maan, this was the most complete video about golang unit tests I've ever seen on youtube, thanks)))

[JonDisnard]

This was probably the best video on go lang unit testing I've seen so far. I come from python unit testing with mock, and was able to understand everything. Good job!

Very engaging way of teaching. Good job!!

I noticed that the testify library runs the tests in less time 👀

Nica tutorial 👌

I'd love a video for testify! seriously, nobody does any videos about unit testing. Its the same with nodejs, no one does anything with TSOA for nodejs unit testing.

I am getting the error "package command-line-arguments is not a main package" when using a package that has the same name as the filename (calculator in this case). How are you able to have a package calculator running in the code? Please guide.
